For agents, the awards are an opportunity to showcase their service and build credibility. Sharing their custom digital badges across social media and professional profiles can help agents stand out in such a competitive industry.

“Real estate is a people business, and we see firsthand the expertise and dedication agents bring to every sale,” said Zoe Pointon, Co-CEO of OpenAgent.

“We want to continue recognising those efforts and giving agents an opportunity to showcase their success.”

For sellers, the awards provide a clear signal of which agents are the most attentive and responsive to help them make confident choices when selecting who to trust with their property.
